History

Just the facts:

  • July, 1995. Dave develops SWIG while working in the Theoretical Physics Division at Los Alamos National Laboratory. Originally, it was conceived as an extension building tool for a customized scripting language that had been created for the Connection Machine 5.
  • January, 1996. SWIG rewritten in C++ at the University of Utah and expanded to cover Tcl, Perl, and Guile.
  • February, 1996. First alpha release.
  • September, 1996. Version 1.0 released. Support for Python added.
  • September, 1997. Version 1.1 released with a variety of improvements such as shadow classes.
  • February, 1998. SWIG1.1p5 released.
  • 1997-1999. Various unsuccessful attempts to create SWIG2.0. Aside from various second system effects, there were other distractions such as a dissertation and searching for a job. All of this work was abandoned although parts of it are found in newer SWIG releases.
  • July, 1998. SWIG development moves to the University of Chicago.
  • January 1, 2000. Dave survives his most pleasant Y2K flight to Chicago O'Hare.
